The Old Globe presents The Last Goodbye, a new musical fusing Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet with the incendiary songs of the legendary singer-songwriter Jeff Buckley. Conceived and adapted by Michael Kimmel, the rock musical is directed by two-time Tony Award nominee Alex Timbers (Peter and the Starcatcher, Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson). Choreography is by Emmy Award nominee Sonya Tayeh ("So You Think You Can Dance"), and orchestrations, music direction and arrangements are by Kris Kukul. The Last Goodbye will run on the Donald and Darlene Shiley Stage in the Old Globe Theatre, part of the Globe's Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, Sept. 22 -- Nov. 3, 2013. Tickets can be purchased online at www.TheOldGlobe.org, by phone at (619) 23-GLOBE or by visiting the Box Office at 1363 Old Globe Way in Balboa Park.

The greatest love story of all time is now a new musical. Two-time Tony Award-nominated director Alex Timbers (Peter and the Starcatcher) joins forces with 2013 Emmy Award-nominated choreographer Sonya Tayeh (TV's "So You Think You Can Dance") and a cast of leading young Broadway talent to bring Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to new musical life. The unforgettable music of Jeff Buckley (including "Hallelujah") will stir your soul as thrilling swordplay and stagecraft stir your pulse. The Last Goodbye is a breathtaking and hugely entertaining new musical!
